You appear to be using some Montana mod units. I can clearly see the BCSO patrol car there, and what looks like a reskin of the MPPD Traffic Patrol Car Please credit bama. You're using his stuff without crediting him. He and Flnn Rescue 12 put a lot of work into these.

Denver Mod! [Released Not Done Version]
itchboy replied to RestingVermin's topic in Mod Development and Concepts
Some tips to help improve your mod: Try not to aim for just simple reskins of my or other's vehicles. Its nice having different things once in a while. Here's some tips to vastly increase the accuracy of your units.You should try to add variants and things. Best example in that pic would be for you to change out the light setup on the ambulance box. There are many light setups you can find on the internet.The police crusiers could be installed with many equipment such as bama's spotlights, rambar and ALPR cameras. You have a decent selection of lightbars to choose from, cops, mine or EmC-Unit's.According to Bugi, the skin looks simple. Some insight I can give:I'm guessing your skins are based of these:You can use my Whelen Freedom lightbar then color the lightbar according to that. Bama's spotlights and rambar are perfect for this vehicle. Everything for this vehicle is available here.Your logos and decals are a bit too big and you're missing the circle decal at the rear bit behind rear windowThe part of the rambar that wraps can be modelled very easillyThe rear window texture can be edited to have those bars and stuff on itFor the ambulance skin:I'd recommend making the orange stripe wrap around the vehicle more.Its missing the top stripe and some letteringThe LED's on the box appear to be big versions of Whelen M2's that I've releasedA nice touch would be modelling the oval things on the hood and the horn on the sideSome new wheels would suffice. The front wheels in my ambulance are perfect for this role, but you could make your own.Now for my opinion on the mapIt looks great and is a breath of fresh air from all of the mods using the LA Mod mapAlthough its new, it feels too European IMO. Doesn't look American to me coming from someone who's never been in AmericaYou could try sourcing new North American architectural buildings into the mapSomething really cool would be to model the actual firestation, hospital, etc in Denver. -

Awesome. Great that you got the callout script working. Hopefully you can get them to complete themselves and give the player points upon completion. You're one of only 2 released mods (the other being CPH mod itself) that has this. We have something similar in store for everyone but its far from complete as of now. I'd personally give alpha/beta stuff to only specific trusted people. This should weed out the bugs while keeping a low profile. I'd much prefer as a modder that you keep this under wraps and not bow to public pressure to release ASAP despite any bugs. It would be better for the community IMO if you'd finish this completely and then release it for everyone. This would also keep the quality level of the site's mods up. What I'd like to see? Is the best you can do with your talent, skill and time. Don't be too worried with what people might suggest. You also need to be aware when taking suggestions that there might be some that sound nice, and seem easy in theory but are impossible to do in EM4. Pushing the limit would be nice but there is a point where an 8 year old game can take you and it isn't that far.

USAR lights done by Flnn Rescue with some edits by me. Showing off a unique feature. A working animated floodlight. More mods should have this feature along with animated ladder legs. -

No top view pics here either. -
Some additional info. The 'pack' function corrupts models that are greater than 500kb. This is a warning to anyone locking large .v3o files. In fact, packing files no longer serves a purpose. It actually makes mod loading times longer because the game has to unpack these files to read them. It could be used as a theft deterrent to custom scratch made models or as a form of copy protection just because its so cumbersome and tiring to lock every model and texture file like the LA Mod.

Because he didn't do the lights on most of the units yet Just saving Mentor some rage points.

Probably won't do LA County. There aren't any LA County FF's in the game. Unless someone wants to make new person skins and send them to me. I choose my engines through google. What I can find when I google LAFD Fire Engine is what I make. Light preview of the new engines and other vehicles Lights on Engines and LAXPD Caprice by Flnn Rescue with some edits by me.All other vehicles were lighted 100% by me -
http://forum.emergency-planet.com/index.php?app=downloads&module=display§ion=screenshot&record=2426&id=620&full=1 This should give more variety in fire trucks. http://forum.emergency-planet.com/files/file/620-fire-truck-cab-pack/ These are cabs that need to be worked on in Zmodeler and given crosslays and rear bodies. Just giving them out for the benefit of the community. Feedback is appreciated.

Version 1.0

This is a set of blank fire truck cabs. Made for easy modding and reworking in your preferred mesh editor. All models have 4 doors. Perfect for North American themed mods. The following are included: Pierce Arrow XT Pierce Dash Seagrave Marauder KME Predator (available in flat or raised roof) Credit me if you use any of these cabs in your mod. Additionally, Hoppah should be credited for the misc parts on the cabs. -

He hasn't been active in his site either. Last update was last year. The question is "is he even still in the internet?" I'll give it a try. He has an email adress I think thats posted on his site. Every FD unit completed so far. -

Would it be rude to try to contact Mike and ask for help? I'd do fictional but it would be a pain in the ass having to re animate the model once I finish it. And it would bug me every time I see it that "this has been faked". -

Thanks for the pics. I've seen both already and they only give marginal info on what's up there. How did Hoppah even make the original models anyway with such little info? -
[RELEASED] Brooklyn "Borough of Fire" (BOF) Modification
itchboy replied to rafaelmfernandez's topic in Mods
If you've played the Copanhagen mod 1.1, you'd see. Its the most awesomesauce thing to come out of EMP and few are aware of it. Its basically bma's brand new set of callouts that replace the original freeplay events. The possiblities are endless, but is a pain to script and requires massive map edits. RCMP has implemented his script and taken it one step further by combining it with mission script capabilities. -

You theoretically could have him bring his custom callout script to your mod. That would be so epic. -

itchboy replied to itchboy's topic in Mod Development and Concepts
Looks cool but serves no purpose to the game unfortunately. The HAZMAT also already has floodlight animations and it is a complete pain in the ass having 4 different animations for the flooodlight and the awning. I've reworked the model because of the part thats cutout from the rear of the HAZMAT. Anyone have top view pics of the HAZMAT? I need info on whats in the roof part of the rear portion. -

The model used by LA mod is quite different than that. I'll still add the ladder anyway. Retractable awing? Whats this? Yes but that is off limits to the public. MikeyPI does not allow usage in other mods. -

Wanted to go for some variety between the Hazmat and USAR trucks. Both trucks still WIP. Animations for the floodlight are planned. -

Ambulance 39 is not part of my vehicles. Not my problem. As I said many many times befrore you need to edit your LA mod to get my vehicles to work. I won't tell you how. There are so many tutorials on this site that teach you how to edit. Find them and start working. USAR WIP -

Messaged you. I'm afraid my pack isn't gonna make it into Episode 101. The pack isn't even done yet. It can't be played ingame unfortuanely. Maybe a mentioning and showing of pics would be possible. Adding a 5th engine is something I can do. Here's a pic of every engine created so far. -
That would be it. Probably has something to do with the fact that NYC Mod vehicles have no driver's side 'special door' which spawns the officer on the left side of the vehicle. When the suspect shoots, the officers end up shooting their own car instead. Montana mod had this issue, so I corrected it with a little piece of code. Figure it out guys. Everybody, please don't PM Hoppah.
